Description
It comes as a big surprise that so many people do not know much about American history, especially those whose mother tongue is not English. America has an amazing history. For the past 200 years, this wonder land has provided opportunity to many first-class scientists, medical doctors, and inventors. Of course, America has produced some of the greatest politicians as well: George Washington, the first president and one of the most iconic founding fathers; Barack Obama, the first African American president; and the current President of the United States of America, Donald Trump. A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES IN CHINESE brings readers back to the past to face hard facts and interesting stories, including many stories of Chinese and Chinese Americans. As a matter of fact, Chinese people have deep ties with American history that start from the very beginning and continue into the present. The Native Americans came from Siberia, which was part of ancient China. Before Christopher Columbus discovered America, many Chinese had already landed on North America. As early as 1847, Chinese students began to come to America to study modern science. Tens of thousands of Chinese workers had sacrificed their lives for building the Great American Railway … We have many wonderful Chinese Americans such as the personal computer King, Dr. An Wang, the best cellist, Yo-Yo Ma, and the respectful congresswoman, Judy May Chu. Although there are only few Chinese American physicians in the United States, they are found throughout the country compassionately serving their patients. To the 5 million Chinese Americans and 1.5 billion Chinese speaking people around the world, A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES IN CHINESE should be one of the books they must read to better understand the current world.
